Joey's Bar Mitzvah at the Kotel
Technically, it will be at Ezrat Yisrael, to the right of the Kotel. Let’s see what ChatGPT can do for this one…
The sun rises over Jerusalem as we anxiously gather at the Western Wall, the Kotel, to celebrate Joey's momentous Bar Mitzvah. The air is filled with excitement as we witness this significant milestone in his life. The ancient stones of the Kotel seem to have absorbed centuries of prayers and dreams, and now it is Joey's turn to leave his mark. Surrounded by family and friends, Joey stands tall, ready to embrace this sacred rite of passage. The joy and anticipation in the atmosphere are palpable, a testament to the importance of this day. As we await Joey's heartfelt recitation of the Torah, we can't help but feel overwhelmed by the weight of this moment and the significance it holds for him and his loved ones. Today, at the Kotel, we come together to celebrate Joey's transition into adulthood, and our hearts are filled with pride and excitement for the bright future that lies ahead for him.


Bar Mitzvah Reception
After prayers at the Kotel followed by some group photos, we will gather everyone on the bus (hopefully with Emma Benun this time), and head over to Mecaz Shimshon for a delicious brunch, dancing and maybe even a slideshow and some speeches.

After the reception, enjoy the rest of your afternoon and evening. If you are joining us for the Ishay Ribo concert, best to get some rest as it will be a long night ahead.

Ishay Ribo Concert
For the select few, we will be heading over to Ariel Sharon Park for what will be a truly special night - a concert by Ishay Ribo under the stars. Ariel Sharon Park is the largest urban park built in the last century in the world - it is even bigger than Central Park.

There are no assigned seats and gates open at 7:30pm. The concert begins at 9pm. We will be in touch throughout the day, but anticipate leaving from the King David at around 6:30pm. Please eat dinner beforehand.
